Difference between '6 and HDi

Another vote here for checking your rear beam mounts.

Edited to avoid confusion (and bad grammar :p).

You'll also want to check the rebound settings on your rear shocks. If the spings are too hard up front and the rear is too soft, it'll result in chronic mid-corner understeer. The opposite will occur if the rear is set up too hard for the front springs....

^^^ This is very valid too, adjustable rears aren't a fit and forget option. And FYI, adding some toe-out will accentuate the skittishness you're experiencing, mine feels a lot like i'm driving on greasy roads all the time, but i refuse to buy new beam mounts and shocks when i'll be moving the car on in a few months lol.
